Marriage and Menopause Episode 7: Menopause Rage and Marriage The Rage Is Real and What To Do About It

If you are in perimenopause and you feel like your husband is breathing wrong, chewing wrong, existing wrong, you are not crazy. You are not mean. And you are not alone.The rage is not a personality defect. It is a stress response that got turned up to maximum. Estrogen regulates serotonin. When estrogen drops, serotonin becomes unstable. Progesterone, the calming hormone, is declining too.Sleep disruption is spiking cortisol. The stress threshold shrinks. What used to roll off her back now lands like a crisis. And nobody warned either of you it was coming.In this episode, Judy and David break down why perimenopause rage happens, what four things are driving it, what makes it worse, and the exact scripts that lower the temperature without anyone swallowing their feelings.This one is for the couple living on eggshells. For the husband who does not know what he did. For the woman who does not recognize herself in the blowup and carries the shame of it alone.The rage is not who she is. It is what happens when the nervous system has nothing left. Wherever you are in your journey, you don't have to walk it alone. Follow Marriage and Menopause on YouTube: youtube.com/@MarriageAndMenopausePodcast Free Menopause for Men Playbook: https://menopausefriend.gumroad.com/l/vziuftCouples Guide to Surviving Perimenopause: https://menopausefriend.gumroad.com/l/rebustIf this episode hit home, act on it.
